Carpeting is exposed to a lot of dirt and other contaminants. In order to protect carpet, make use of area rugs and runners. You do not have to cover all your carpeting. However, areas where spills are likely would benefit from a rug or runner. For example, you can place a rug under a dining room table. If you have young children, place your area rug where they typically play. Pet urine gives a unpleasant smell and in a long run the odor of urine will be the worst and difficult to be dealt with. So, train your pet to urinate outdoors and you may use repellents on your carpet. Repellents acts effectively to keep your pets away from the carpet. You may find commercial repellents and also you can use white vinegar, lemon juice, rubbing alcohol as repellent agents. Shoes should never be worn on carpeting. This is an easy to way to track in dirt from outside. Always remove your shoes when you enter your home. Encourage guests to do the same. Have a place to set shoes upon entering the home that's away from your carpeting. You do not want to bring items like wine, food, or other beverages near the carpet. Eat and drink over tiled or wood floors in your home. If you have young children, encourage them to play away from the carpeting. The easiest way to deal with stains is to prevent them from occurring.

TL;DR in English: Use rugs and runners. Train your pet and use repellents. Remove your shoes when entering your home. Keep common sources of stains away from your carpet.

Join a gym that has a lap pool (25 yards/meters at least). Swimming throughout the year will increase your strength, endurance, and stamina. It will also keep you in contact with fellow year-rounders who can support your efforts. When you don’t have anyone to talk with at the pool, swimming can feel like a chore, and a lonely one at that. Going to work out with other swimmers might score you free training advice for free. At the very least, you’ll make friends who share your desire to become a better swimmer. This will lead to a sense of accountability, something that really helps when dragging yourself out of bed at five in the morning. Both are great opportunities for all swimmers to get technique help on each swimming stroke. They are also great ways to meet fellow swimmers who will help bolster your goal to become a better swimmer. There are four basic strokes (butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, and freestyle) and you should try to learn them all. While you’ll always have a favorite, being a well-rounded swimmer will help to keep swimming challenging and interesting.  When you swim all strokes, your use more muscles. Your body will also get a much better workout. You’ll see and feel the results faster when you utilize all four strokes. The risk of injury while swimming is decreased because you aren’t always stressing the same muscles with the same movements. The musculature is more balanced.  The skills you learn from one stroke transfers into skills into a different stroke. For example, the underwater undulation you employ when kicking off the wall into breaststroke is transferable to the underwater undulation you’ll use when starting in backstroke. Adding flip turns eliminates the stop-and-start rests at the end of each lap. You’ll become a better distance swimmer when employing these maneuvers. You’ll also save energy when you push off the wall, propelling yourself into a good position to begin your stroke. It’s also a great way to see where your opponents are.  Exercising your core while you learn...

TL;DR in English: Swim year round. Join a swim club. Join a swim team or attend stroke clinics. Learn your strokes. Learn flip turns. Find and register for swimming lessons, classes, clinics, and races near you. Swim drills and time yourself. Learn how to time yourself. Swim as often as possible. Participate in local swim meets.

No one likes to be blamed for mistakes at work. When your boss calls you into their office, your heart might be beating in your throat. Try to relax as much as possible. Sit comfortably and take a deep breath.  You want to remain calm so that you can hear the accusations. Try to write down what your boss has said you did wrong. You might not remember exactly what was said when you leave the office, so you need good notes. Remember not to immediately get defensive. Your boss might be too angry to hear you, either. Unless you are being fired, you should have time to go back to your office and gather your thoughts. If you didn’t do something, calmly say, “I didn’t do that.” Your boss might not hear you, but you need to say it. “Blame” is a troubling word. It suggests only one person is responsible when things go wrong. However, many people might have contributed to the problem. Honestly, assess whether you are in any way responsible.  If you are, then analyze what you could have done differently. When you fess up to the mistake, you need to explain how it happened and what you’ll do differently. Don’t blame someone else for the mistake either unless you have documented proof that they make the error. Hopefully, you’ve kept emails, notes, and memos that back up your story. Find them now and make copies. Remember not to give your supervisor originals of anything.  Put the documents in some sort of order. If your boss told you to do something in an email—and that’s why you’re being blamed—then put that email on the top. Use a highlighter to highlight relevant information in emails and other documents. You can’t expect your boss to read through fifty pages of material to find what is relevant. Your coworkers can be great witnesses if they back up your story. One reason you want to build relationships with coworkers is for precisely these moments—you’ve been blamed for something you didn’t do. Talk to your coworkers and ask if they will talk to your boss on your behalf. You shouldn’t ask your coworkers to attend your...

Corn snake adults can get to be as big as 5 feet (1.4m) long.  You may not need a 20 gallon (75.7 L) enclosure for a hatchling, but eventually you will.  The enclosure can be either a tank or vivarium.  When the snake is small, it is ok to start your pet off in a smaller tank such as a Living World Faunarium or similar product.  For a large snake, the vivarium should be around 30–50 inches (76.2–127.0 cm) long but there's no real limit on size, just make sure it's large enough for the snake. Provide a basking bulb that covers about 1/3 of the tank to provide a proper heat gradient. Position the bulb over one side of the tank to get a gradient temperature. Temperatures should be about 75-85 degrees F, 23-29 degrees C, with the higher temperature on the warm area of the tank at one side.  You can also use a heat mat, but it may put your snake at risk of a burn. If you use a heat mat, it must be thermostatically controlled because they reach in excess of 250 degrees  F (121 degrees C) which will severely burn the snake. Place the mat under 1/3 of the cage. Hot rocks are never suitable for any pet as they provide a localized source of heat that is too hot. A cold snake may curl around it, seriously burning itself. Your snake will want to explore its habitat, so include at least 1 branch for it to slither up. Look for a sturdy branch, which can be store bought. Securely install the branch in the tank so your snake can safely crawl up and down it. Check for climbing branches at a local pet store or online. If you find a branch in nature, clean it well and make sure it's free of bugs before you put it in your snake's habitat. There are many, many different floor coverings commercially available for corn snakes but your best options are repticarpet, cypress chips, plain paper towels, and newspaper. Newspaper is the best as it is very absorbent and easy to replace.  While practical, newspaper is not very aesthetically pleasing. If you want a decorative substrate, use bark or cypress mulch. Do not use cedar shavings in...

If you don't understand a part of the contract you're signing, don't sign it. Ask the dealer to explain. If they consciously mislead you about a part of the contract, they could be subject to major fines and even jail time. Take your time to go through any contract or worksheet the dealer sends you and double-check that it doesn't contain any funny stuff. Unscrupulous dealers will sometimes increase an agreed-upon interest or add a warranty to your car without telling you. This is illegal, and it's called "packing payments." It's easy for the dealer to change your monthly payment from $347 to $357 because it's difficult to spot and it's "only" $10. But that $10, over the life of a 48-month loan, becomes almost $500 for the dealer. Don't get scammed by packed payments. Like soda at a fast-food chain, extras are where the car dealerships make a lot of extra profit. Ask yourself what is truly necessary and what is merely satisfactory. At the end of the day, do you really need rustproofing or LED lights on your brand new car, or are you just too tired to put up a fight? If you see your salesperson brandishing a four-square worksheet, tell him you'll walk away unless he puts it away. Four-square worksheets are pieces of paper that salespeople whip out in desperate attempts to fool the buyer. Essentially, here's how they work: The sheet in divided up into four quadrants: Trade-in value; purchase price; down payment; and monthly payment. The salesperson keys in on what you're most concerned about (maybe it's lowering your monthly payment), and reduces the payment in one square while increasing the payment in another. The worksheet looks logical, but it's more like a three-card monte trick. The dealer uses this piece of paper principally to confuse you. Shrewd salespeople will come up to you and ask you how much you want to pay a month for a car. Agreeing to a monthly payment before you've agreed on a final price of the car is a certain recipe for paying way more than you need to. Think about it. If a salesperson...

TL;DR in English: Never sign a contract without double-checking. Don't buy unnecessary extras. Don't get cajoled by four-square worksheets. Don't focus solely on the monthly payment. Don't let a car salesperson make you feel bad.

Owning a maid service requires much more thought and planning than just buying some cleaning supplies. Designing a business plan will help you think of all the different steps you should take to build a strong foundation for your business.  If you have other major demands on your time -- such as caring for a sick relative or going to school part time -- you might want to consider if this is the best time to start your own business. Although the cleaning industry generally has low start-up costs, you will still need a minimum of $5,000 to purchase equipment and insurance, hire a lawyer to protect your legal interests, and get an accountant to run your payroll division and sort out your taxes. One the key components of your business plan is your budget, or the amount of money you have to invest in your business. This will often determine the scope of your business plan, how many employees you plan to take on, etc. Do you have the money to spend on the massive amount of cleaning products that a large office building will require or are you intending to work out of a smaller, private home? Your budget may also help determine if you will join a cleaning franchise (like Molly Maids, Merry Maids or Vanguard Cleaning Systems). Franchises often require expensive joining fees (usually between $30,000-$50,000), but they also help cover some structural needs like marketing, employee training, support for franchise owners, etc. It is likely that you won't be the only maid service available in your area. What do you offer that no one else does? Why should your clients pick you over your competitors?  For example, will you offer eco-friendly cleaning supplies? Will you offer carpet or rug cleaning services? Do you offer hours on the weekends or evenings? Write down three or four words that will define the core values of your brand. What three words do you want your customers to remember when they think of you? Some key words might be loyalty, trust, care, reliability, spotless, pristine, etc. So much of the cleaning...

Disconnect the battery. Choose a suitable mounting location. Decide what type of light to use. Determine where you want to place the switch.

Make sure that you move in with one, calm motion. Move too fast and you risk startling her; move too slow and you may seem too passive. If she's given you permission to make the move, she’ll most likely reciprocate your advance and kiss you back.  Continue touching her if you were already making contact before the kiss. Continue holding her hand or touching her arm or shoulder. Be gentle. Make sure that if you're touching her, you're only applying light pressure. Being too forceful or holding her too firmly might make her uncomfortable, or show that you're moving too fast. The first time you kiss a girl, you won’t want to go overboard or turn her off. Make sure that the kiss doesn’t last too long, and that you aren’t too aggressive with your tongue. Your kiss should be calm and confident,  and not too fast. If you come on too strong, she may think that you’re desperate or too forward.  The kiss should only last a few seconds. There will be plenty more time to continue kissing, especially if you ask her if she wants to continue. If she pulls away first, don't lean into her and try to prolong a kiss. Keep your hands on her waist, arm or hands. Don't let your hands wander to places that she may be uncomfortable having you touch. Just because she's agreed to kiss doesn't mean that she is ready to go any further. If she starts to touch you in return, and you feel that she's interested in doing more, break off the kiss and ask her. She'll be glad that you respect her feelings, and she'll be able to tell you if there's anything she wants to do next. If you stay in control of the kiss and break it off first, you’ll show her that you’re confident and in control, and that you’re not moving too quickly. She may go back in for another kiss or tell you that she wants you to kiss her again: if so, go for it.  When the kiss ends, ask her if she's okay, or ask how she's feeling. The moment after a kiss can be a bit awkward, but asking if she's alright will give you an idea of what she's thinking about or feeling. If she says...

TL;DR in English: Move in close and kiss her. Don’t take the kiss too far. Create more tension by letting go first. Be respectful if she turns you down.

For many lab reports, you will be required to start with a cover sheet. Check with your teacher to find out exactly what information should be included. Information that is typically found on the cover sheet includes:  Your name and the name of your partner(s) The title of your experiment The date you conducted the experiment Your teacher's name Information that identifies which class you are in The abstract is the first part of your report that your readers will see, but it should be the last thing you actually write because it is a summary of everything else you have included in your report. The purpose of the abstract is to provide potential readers with basic information about the experiment you conducted and the results you got so they can determine whether or not they are interested in reading the full report. Keep your abstract brief and note the purpose of the experiment, the hypothesis, and any major findings. Depending on the nature of your experiment and the requirements of your class, you may want to add an introduction section to your report. This should explain the underlying theory, provide background information regarding the research that has already been done, and describe your motivation for conducting this specific experiment. The objective section of your report should be a few sentences that describe the purpose of your experiment. If you wish, you can state your hypothesis. The procedure or method section of your report should be a detailed explanation of exactly how you conducted your experiment. Go through each and every step you took, keeping in mind that a reader who is completely unfamiliar with your experiment should be able to read your procedure and repeat the experiment exactly the way you did it.  If a diagram will help your audience understand your procedure, include it in this section. You may be tempted to write this as a list, but it's best to stick to paragraph form. Some teachers may require a separate section on the materials and apparatuses that were used to conduct...

Before working with the electronic system in your vehicle, it’s important to disconnect the battery to avoid shocking yourself or doing any damage.  Open the hood and use a hand or socket wrench to loosen the nut holding the black ground cable on the negative terminal on the battery.  Once loose, pull the cable off and tuck it to the side of the battery to avoid allowing it to come back into contact with the terminal.  The negative terminal can be located by looking for the letters “NEG” or the negative symbol (-) on the battery. You will not need to disconnect the positive cable. There are a number of places one could feasibly mount a spotlight, so choose a location that’s best for your purposes.  Some common locations include on top of your side mirror or on the roof of the vehicle.  You will need to identify the location you intend to mount the spot light first in order to cut the proper lengths of wire. Remember that if you install the spotlight on your roof, you will have to drill through it, which may cause leaking. There are a number of options on the market for spotlights and installation kits.  The three common types of spotlights you can purchase are halogen, LED and HID.  Each style of light has its own strengths and weaknesses and should be chosen based on application and budget.  Halogen lights will be the cheapest and usually the dimmest.  However, the bulbs are less expensive to replace when they blow out. LED lights can be extremely bright and cost more than most halogen spotlight applications. HID lamps are the most expensive, but offer the longest lifespan and often the brightest lights. You may decide to install a button or switch inside your vehicle to turn the spotlight on and off.  On many spotlights, the switch will be on the light itself and will require no further wiring.  If you opt to wire the light to a switch on your dashboard, however, the installation will be a bit more in depth.  If you decide to run a switch for a light that has one on the light, leave the switch on the light...

Remove expansion plugs (Freeze Plugs) from skimmers and wall returns  Put plugs in Ziploc bag and place near cover for use. Reassemble filter, pump, heater, etc. Replace drain plugs into pump, filter, heater, chlorinator, etc. Replace pump and skimmer baskets, pressure gauges, pool ladders, diving boards etc. Use thread sealant such as Teflon tape on all threaded plugs, connections. If your filter is a D.E. Place filter valve to filter position and open air bleeder (beneath pressure gauge, usually). Open all incoming valves (before pump) and all return side valves (after filter). Lubricate valves and o-rings as needed. Replace pump lid tightly. Place filter valve in proper position. Slide valves (push-pull valves) should be in the down position on most DE filters and in the up position for Pac-Fab sand filters. Turn on power to pump & start system Watch pressure on gauge closely with your hand on power switch! Recheck that all return side valves are open. Repeat priming process mentioned before. Repair as needed. Once system is started, adjust valves and return fittings for proper flow.

Now that you have everything you want to say figured out (and hopefully on paper), write down your main points. Take this notecard and see if you can cover everything just from looking at it. How does it flow? What parts are you less convinced by yourself on? Get to the point where you're comfortable delivering it just with the notecard. The more comfortable you are with the speech, the more it'll show when you're delivering it. Alright, so this isn't super necessary, but it's definitely a good idea. If you have it memorized, you can make eye contact with your audience and worry about the icing on the cake, like gestures and inflection. Don't stress if you don't have enough time -- but if you do, take advantage of it.  Be sure to memorize the most important aspects, such as a funny story, quote, or memorable turn of phrase so you can deliver them exactly as you imagined. This doesn't mean that you have to go out there unarmed. No, you'll be taking your notecard with you! If your mind blanks, you can take a look-see at it and go right where you need to. You ran over it with the notecard 10 times for this reason. This is a grand idea for a couple of reasons:  Delivering it to someone helps you get used to someone looking at you while you're talking. Public speaking can be pretty terrifying, so having a practice audience will help calm your nerves. Have them actually pay attention. At the end of your speech, ask them what questions popped up in their mind. Were there any holes in your argument? Or did anything confuse them? Really, you should be practicing wherever you can. But these two spots will be particularly useful:  Practice in front of the mirror so you can see your body language. What gestures work where? How do you feel about the pauses and what do you do during them? Practice in the shower because it's probably one of the few times during the day where you can mindlessly go over it. Does your mind blank on any part? If so, review it. Practice while you’re doing other things as well, like driving,...

Longing, or training with a rope, lets you lead a horse around an arena as you train it. When longing, make sure to use the largest circle you can. Circles that are too small can hurt the horse's legs, ligaments, and tendons. Make sure your circle has a minimum diameter of 60 feet.  As you start training the horse to longe, don't do it longer than 10 minutes in each direction. Build the horse up for longer sessions, because long periods of longeing can put a lot of strain on a horse's body. Longing should take around 15 to 20 minutes total. You may want to get a lunge whip, which is a stiff 6 ft (1.8 m) or longer whip that you can use to guide the horse in the direction you want it to go. Before attempting to mount the animal, it is important to gain its trust with ground breaking. Attach a lunge line to the horse's halter. You will pull on his teeth and cause pain. Making the horse's mouth uncomfortable or painful will make the horse fear longeing. Move your body with your horse so that the longe line has a steady contact. The horse will eventually accept this contact and walk in a circle to maintain that contact instead of pushing and pulling away. Longeing a horse is the process of showing leadership through working them in an arena. Spend time at least once daily longeing your horse. Use your body language to direct and speed them up. Eventually, build up the speed and intensity of longeing, until they can do a full canter, all while listening to your cues.  You should never touch your horse while longing; all cues should be given through changes in energy and body position, or with swinging the end of your longe line. Longeing is a trust exercise; every time your horse does as you ask, break eye contact and release the pressure you're applying. Longeing is also a great way to exercise your horse when you cannot ride it. Teach the horse to properly walk beside you while leading it with a lead rope. As the horse moves in the circle around you, you need to teach it voice commands. Introduce the horse to the...

Discard any that are dry-rotted and/or cracked. Replace any wall fittings.  If above-ground pool, reattach hoses removed at closing.  Do not over-tighten! powder tight filter, make sure clamp band is tight and properly positioned. (It was probably removed in the fall to have the filter grids pulled out and cleaned with a hose, so make sure it was re-installed correctly).   Fill pump basket with water from pool or hose. Look for leaks out of pump. Double check that all valves and pressure relief orifices are open.  Multiport valves should be on the filter position. (Or you can start the pump with the valve in the Drain to Waste position, and when water begins to run out the waste line, shut off the pump. Place valve into the Recirculate position and run pump until water flows into the pool. Shut off pump, switch the valve to the Filter position to complete the process.) Turn off if pressure rises above normal range; usually above 30 psi. If no pressure builds up at all, and pump is not pumping, shut off power after 1 minute. If pump still won't prime up, try closing main drain valve, if present, and starting off the skimmer alone. If pump still won't catch prime after 5 or so attempts, check incoming pipes for air leaks. Add 1 lb of DE powder per 5 sq. ft of filter area into the skimmer (only if you have a DE filter, of course). Do this quickly, within 2 minutes of starting filter. If you have a cartridge filter replace cartridge element every 2 years. Sand filters should have their sand changed every 5 years. Check for leaks around pump and filter; repair as needed. Note start-up pressure on filter gauge. When psi is 10 lbs above this number, backwash the filter. Empty pump basket also at this time, or earlier if you notice a drop in filter pressure. If you have a heater, follow pilot lighting and test firing instructions, usually printed on back of front heater door. Operate to test and adjust all other equipment.

If you want to be a valedictorian, then you have to study smart to get good grades. This doesn't mean that you should spend all of your waking hours perched over your book, but it does mean that you should study as efficiently and thoroughly as possible. Here are some tips to get you studying hard:  Make an efficient study schedule. Maybe you will spend 2-3 hours of studying a night, or maybe you will study for 3-4 hours every other night. Whatever you do, make a plan in advance so you don't end up getting overwhelmed or procrastinate. Pace yourself. Set a goal -- 10-15 pages per day, and don't go overboard too much or you'll burn out. Take advantage of practice quizzes. Your history books, math textbooks, or other course material may come with practice questions that you can use to see how well you know the course materials. Even if your teacher doesn't use these resources, they can be valuable to you. Make flashcards. If flashcards help you memorize historical concepts, foreign languages, or even mathematical operations, use them. You don't have to be the teacher's pet to be stellar in the classroom. You should, however, arrive to class on time, participate in class discussion, and ask questions when you're confused about something. Being focused in the classroom will help you absorb the course information more, which will lead you to do better on tests, and it will also make your teacher like you more and will help you earn any in-class points allotted for the course, such as participation points.  Keep your chatter with other students to a minimum. You may be missing some important information. Take stellar notes to study from. Don't just write down what the teacher is saying word for word -- try to put the notes in your own words so you really absorb the material. Talk to your teacher after class occasionally. You don't have to annoy your teacher by always being there, but getting to know your teachers a bit more will help you stand out in their eyes. If you want to succeed in the classroom and...

Once you’ve made the decision to improve your physique, the first thing you should do is start a dedicated strength training program. Your regimen should be comprehensive, targeting all the major muscle groups of the body, and you should perform workouts on a consistent basis, taking days off only to rest. If you want to build muscle, weight training must become part of your lifestyle. It is extremely important to have an understanding of proper technique and body mechanics before you progress to lifting heavier weights. Failure to select a manageable load can result in injury. In the beginning, you should aim to lift weights around three days a week. Weight training can be tough on inexperienced muscles and joints, and an acclimation period is usually necessary to prepare the body to regularly overcome resistance. As you gain experience and your body becomes used to the strain, you can incorporate another workout or 2 per week, though you should still take a couple off days to allow for muscular recovery. To make the most efficient use of your time in the gym, consider performing a traditional bodybuilding “split” workout, in which 2 or more muscle groups (e.g. back and biceps/legs and abs) are exercised consecutively during the same workout. There is a persistent debate over the best number of sets and reps to perform to achieve certain goals, but most modern fitness research points to one simple rule: if you want to build muscle, you have to lift something heavy a lot of times. Don’t overthink it: start with a straightforward 3x10 structure (three sets of ten repetitions of a given exercise) until progress begins to slow, then either increase the weight you’re using or the number of reps you’re performing to keep improving.  Once you’ve gained a little experience with strength training, you can start experimenting with different weights and rep ranges to find out what works best for your body type: low reps (1 to 3) with extremely high weights are most often used to gain explosive strength, while high rep...

Trimming your hair can get rid of breakage immediately. Have a professional stylist cut your hair to remove all of the damaged ends. If you blow dry your hair regularly and spend a lot of time in the sun, your hair should be trimmed every eight weeks.  Trimming is especially important if you have split ends. The split will continue to travel up your hair shaft and your hair will break off on its own. If you trim your ends yourself, only use hair shears. Twist your hair into one inch sections around your index finger, and cut off any of the ends that pop up. Antioxidants can correct hair damage caused by the sun and chemical treatments.  Products containing rice extract and artichoke extract can make your hair shinier and smoother and repair your hair cuticle. Products containing Vitamin E (panthenol) increase the water content of your hair and make it more elastic. Improved elasticity keeps your hair from breaking when it is being manipulated. These ingredients can be found in shampoos, conditioners, and hair serums. Plant based biopolymers help your hair maintain moisture and fill the outer layer of your hair shaft that is broken. Look for products that contain carob tree extract, Cystoseira compressed seaweed extract, and Lepidium meyenii extract.  Out of these three ingredients, carob tree extract works best for smoothing the hair cuticle.  Botanical extracts are particularly effective if your hair breakage is due to chemical treatments. These ingredients can be found in shampoos, conditioners, and hair serums. Put coconut oil on your hair every day as a pre-wash treatment.  Coconut oil will coat your hair and protect your hair from losing protein when you wash it.  This will strengthen your hair and improve its appearance. The quality of your hair will improve with long-term use of coconut oil.  If you wash your hair in the morning, you can apply coconut oil before you go to bed and wash it out in the morning. If you wash your hair at night, apply the oil as a post wash treatment so it can penetrate your...

For example, you can say, “I’d love to take you out to dinner, and then we can go to glow golf.” If the weather is nice enough you can suggest, “Let’s spend the afternoon at the lake. I’ll bring a picnic and we can rent a boat. What’s your favorite picnic food?”

TL;DR in English: Dress nicely when you ask her. Ask her in person or over the phone. Suggest a specific date for Valentine’s Day.

Stop rushing through life and letting your mind get stuck in the past. Instead, take in everything around you, whether it is feats of nature or man-made creations. Make a conscious effort to pay attention to each aspect of your present life. For example, take a walk and look at everything around you. If you are outside, look at the trees, the ground, and all the scenery. Feel the air on your skin. If you are inside, pay attention to the color of the walls, what sounds you hear from others in your area, or how the floor feels under your feet. This will help you stay focused on the present and be mindful of your current surroundings. People often speed through life as they rush from one moment to another. Make yourself slow down and enjoy everything you do, even if it's boring. For example, pay attention to your actions when you get a snack. Grab a handful of grapes and consciously look at them. Notice their shape and size. Eat one and pay attention to the flavors. Enjoy the burst of sweetness on your tongue and the sustenance the fruit is giving you. It's okay not to be thrilled with everything that happens to you every day. If you are doing a project at work that you don't like or have an obligation you don't enjoy, that's okay. Instead of rushing past it, think about what you are doing each day and experience it. One way you can get stuck in the past without knowing it is to get stuck in a routine. Maybe you do the same thing the same way every day or at the same time every week. While routine can be comforting, it can make you feel stuck and forget about the present all together. Instead, change up your routine. Walk a different way to the bus stop or drive a different way to work.  Even making subtle changes can help you break out. Change what you eat every day. Incorporate newly learned words into your vocabulary every day. Anything that can make you take notice of what you do on a daily basis will help you live in the now instead of the past or future.  If you don't want to or can't change your routine,...

TL;DR in English: Become aware of your surroundings. Slow down. Change your routine. Pay attention to calm moments. Leave yourself a reminder. Focus on the task at hand. Meditate

Typically, an increase an eye contact is a good sign that someone is into you. It’s particularly good if they hold eye contact for a while and don’t look away.  Continuously locking eyes with you is her way of letting you know it's ok to approach her.  Keep in mind that girls who are shy may not make eye contact as often. If you know she’s shy, don’t take a lack of eye contact as a sign that she doesn’t like you. An easy gesture to understand and to watch for, is flirtatious behavior and touching. If she’s suddenly touching your shoulder or brushing her hand against yours, chances are she’s into you.  Asking for a hug before you part ways is another good indication of her feelings. Some women are more subtle in their approach. They may ask you to help them out or want to show you something on their phone. This is their way of closing the physical gap between the two of you. Be aware that not all physical contact is a sign that she likes you. A girl may tap you on the shoulder or ask for a friendly hug without having other intentions. It's important to look for other signs in addition to physical contact. Whether she’s making fun of your hair or giving you a hard time about always being late; teasing can be a sign of affection.  Teasing followed by a smile is even better!  If her teasing is followed by a smile, she's probably just trying to be playful. She may tease you about your age, past girlfriends or hobbies. This is her way of trying to get a reaction from you. Being mean or hurtful is not a sign that she’s into you, so don’t waste your time on someone who puts you down. Of all the clues she might be giving you, facial expressions are some of the easiest to understand and to read. If she seems to light up when you come into the room, you can probably rest assured that the feelings are mutual.  If she's always smiling when you look at her (or even when you're not) this is a sure sign that she’s attracted to you.  Smiling and laughter go hand in hand. If you notice her laughing at all of your jokes (even...

Buy multipurpose furniture. Add lighting. Paint your dorm room walls, if permitted. Create a message board. Use storage bins as a decoration. Use the space under your bed. Organize your closet.

Even though the technique between a cartwheel and a side flip is quite different, cartwheels can help you get used to the side flip rotation, as well as spotting the ground and orienting yourself through the sideways rotation. If you can graduate to doing one-handed cartwheels, that’s even better. In a number of ways, side flips have the same form as front flips with the leading steps, launch off the ground, and tucked rotation. Though not a requisite, already being comfortable with front flips will make the entire process come more naturally and easily. If you’d feel more comfortable starting with a front flip, you can find more information on learning to front flip at: How to Do a Front Flip Since part of the difficulty of this trick is the mental block associated with fear from landing incorrectly, you can help overcome it by practicing with plenty of mats. Since this trick does require launching off your feet and gaining quite a bit of height, flipping onto gymnastics blocks is also a great way to practice, and they offer even more cushioning than mats. Another great way to help you get the motion down is with the help of a spotter. In addition to possibly giving you tips on how to launch better or tuck more tightly, a spotter can help you practice by allowing you to roll over his or her back. The motion isn’t exactly the same, but by leading up in the same manner, tucking in a similar manner, and exiting the tuck with your feet pointing perpendicular to your movement, you’re still practicing key aspects of side flips.

TL;DR in English: Practice cartwheels. Practice front flips. Practice with lots of mats. Get help from a spotter.

It will take anywhere from 24 to 28 hours for your skin to heal after sugaring. It's very common for red spots to form on sugared areas. These spots form where the hair root was removed, and may look somewhat similar to a sun burn. Do not worry about such spots as they'll clear up in a few days. In the event you get an ingrown hair, treat it promptly. Ingrown hairs can cause serious skin irritation if left untreated. You can use topical gels designed to treat ingrown hairs at a local supermarket. If ingrown hairs do not clear up on their own, see a dermatologist. Doing sea salt soaks regularly following a sugaring appointment can prevent the formation of ingrown hairs. If you notice redness, itching, burning, or other symptoms that do not go away within 24 or 48 hours, see a dermatologist. Sugaring is usually safe, but can make your skin more susceptible to infections. If you have a rash that you suspect may be infected, make an appointment with a dermatologist.

TL;DR in English: Do not worry about red spots. Treat ingrown hairs. See a dermatologist in the event of an infection.

Versatility is key in a small space, so always look for pieces that serve multiple purposes. For example, cube ottomans can be used for both seating and storage. You may also be able to find a bedside table that has a drawer you can use for clothing. If your dorm room is dark and dreary, it's easy to brighten it up with some additional lighting. Look for desk lamps and floor lamps that go with the theme of your room.  Paper lanterns and string lights are also fun ways to add some extra mood lighting.  If you have a boring lampshade, dress it up by stenciling it or gluing some decorative ribbon to it. If you’re unhappy with the color of your dorm room walls, ask your RA or university housing manager if you are permitted to paint the walls. Although most schools will not allow this, some may give you permission. This works especially well for things like shoes, scarves, bags, and hats. Every dorm room needs a message board of some sort! It will help keep you organized and give your friends a handy spot to leave you notes. Depending on your needs, you may opt for a corkboard, a magnet board, a chalkboard, a whiteboard, or some combination of these.  For a cheap magnet board, hang cookie sheets on your wall with adhesive tape. If you can't find colorful ones, consider spray painting them to match your decor.  Chalk paint can turn any surface into a message board, from a tabletop to a piece of scrap lumber that you can hang on the wall. You'll need to cram a lot into a small space, so storage bins and baskets will come in super handy. Choose decorative storage containers that match your decor. There are plenty of designs to choose, from wicker baskets to neon-colored plastic bins and patterned fabric containers. You can store a ton of stuff under your bed, which helps you control your clutter and keep your room looking great. If you don't have enough height, buy some bed risers to lift your bed a little higher.  Invest in under-the-bed storage containers to keep your storage area neat and tidy.  Get an extra-long...

Gather your materials. Pour water into the jar. Use a spoon to run the oil over the surface of the water. Place the ruler in the water.

Some hair dyes, like Manic Panic, can be applied to the hair directly out of the package. Other dyes may need to be mixed. If you have a bold color and want to make it lighter, you can always add a conditioner to dilute the color. If you want a color that you can’t find, you can always create it by mixing two different colored dyes. You can use a brush to paint it on the section, or you can “dip” it into a bowl filled with the dye, spreading it along the section of hair with your gloved hand. Concentrate the majority of the dye on the ends of your hair, making sure the tips are fully saturated. As you bring the dye upwards, use less dye so that it gradually fades into your natural color.Do this all over your head, being careful to dye the same length of sections. You want the color to be even around your entire head. Blending the color into your natural hair is important. Apply the dye thickly to the ends of your hair to create a bold, solid color. When you're nearing the area of hair where the dyed hair will blend into your natural hair, use your finger tips to softly pull some of the dye up the strand, without saturating the hair. This will help the color slowly lighten, and it will help you avoid a stark line between the colored hair and your natural hair. This will heat up your hair and speed up the dying process. It will also prevent you from making a mess as the dye sits on your hair. However, this step is completely optional. Check the color periodically to see if it is bright enough. With many colored dyes, the longer you let it sit, the brighter it will be. Just make sure to check the packaging for directions for your specific product. Remember, some dyes will fade gradually with washes, so if you don’t let it sit very long, you will get a paler color that washes out faster. Once you’ve let the dye sit for the required amount of time, you can rinse it out. Use cold water to remove all traces of the dye, and apply a conditioner to give your hair some moisture and shine. Don’t wash with shampoo,...

TL;DR in English: Mix the dye according to package directions. Apply the dye to your hair. Blend the color. Wrap each dyed section with aluminum foil. Leave the dye on your hair according to the package directions. Rinse out the dye. Style your hair as usual.

When changing your routine to include morning workouts, you will need to decide on a type of exercise that you enjoy and will motivate you to wake up earlier than you are used to. You will be more likely to wake up at an earlier time to squeeze in a workout if you are looking forward to what you are about to do.  Think about what you enjoy doing or what you have enjoyed in the past. For example, if you used to be a swimmer and you enjoyed it, try getting into swimming again. If you enjoy running for long distances, get out there for a run before you get ready for work. If you are unsure of what exercise you enjoy doing, sign up for a free trial at a local gym and try out the equipment and classes offered there. It is common for workout studios to offer a trial class or two to find out if you would enjoy the classes offered. Take advantage of this and try out some studios in your area to find out what you might enjoy doing. Sign up for a membership at a gym in your area. This will give you a place to go and exercise in an environment where other people are focusing on their workouts.  Research gyms in your area via the Internet or ask friends and family where they enjoy going. Make a list of gyms that you are interested in and visit each one to take a tour. If you are still having trouble deciding which gym you would like to join, make a list of pros and cons for each one. For example, you could write “indoor track” or “low monthly price” in the pros column and “no fitness classes offered” or “membership cost exceeds my budget” in the cons column. Seeing the good and bad aspects of each gym on paper should help you come to a consensus about which gym to join. If you are not comfortable joining a gym, there are plenty of options for you to workout at home before work, including purchasing videos and equipment to use at home. This is even more convenient because you will eliminate the time to commute from your home to a gym or other workout location.  Browse workout videos online or at a store near you. There...

TL;DR in English: Decide on an exercise. Join a gym. Purchase workout equipment. Find a workout partner.

This experiment will illustrate that light travels in a straight line in the air but it will bend when it hits a certain surface, like water and oil. To conduct this experiment, you will need:  A large glass jar. Access to water. One cup of oil. A ruler. A spoon. Fill the jar halfway with water. Make sure the jar is large enough to fit the ruler. Spoon oil into the jar so it forms a solid layer of oil on the surface of the water. Position it so it is vertical in the water and you can see the numbers on the side of the ruler.  Note that the numbers appear stretched or magnified as the light rays bend in the oil and the water. Move the ruler from side to side to note the different appearances of the ruler numbers in the oil and in the water. This will show that light travels at different speeds in different mediums, such as air, oil, and water. It will travel in a straight line in the air, but it will bend when it changes speed due to contact with a certain medium, like oil or water.

Call your doctor. Call the doctor immediately if your baby is under 3 months of age. Call emergency services if necessary.

In order to keep your Westie’s coat clean and soft, bathe him every few weeks unless he has a skin problem. This can help keep your Westie’s skin healthy and keep his coat looking lustrous and full.  You may also want to bathe your Westie after you trim his fur to boost the effects and remove lingering fur. Keep in mind that bathing your Westie too often can remove his natural skin oils and make him susceptible to dry skin and other skin problems. Westies with skin problems, such as a yeast infection, may require weekly or more frequent bathing with a special medicated dog shampoo. It is important to choose a mild shampoo that is formulated for dogs. Do not use human shampoo on your Westie Human shampoos can be too harsh on your Westie’s skin and may even turn his coat pink. You can buy shampoos for your Westie at pet stores or your vet’s office. The best way to bathe your Westie is by using a hand held showerhead in a bathtub. If you do not have a showerhead, then a pitcher or large cup also works well. Place a rubber mat in the tub to keep your Westie from slipping.  You should use warm, but not hot water to bathe your Westie. Test the water on the inside of your wrist. If it feels comfortable, then it should be okay for your Westie. Have a towel ready to dry off your Westie after his bath. Place your Westie into the bathtub and start wetting down his fur with the shower head or pitcher. After all of his fur is wet, then you can apply some shampoo to his fur and start working it in. Make sure that you avoid his face, especially his eyes. After you have shampooed all of your Westie’s fur, then you can rinse out the shampoo. Rinse until the water is no longer sudsy. Make sure that you rinse every surface that you applied shampoo to. After you have rinsed your Westie’s fur, then wrap him up in a towel and dry him off.

TL;DR in English: Bathe your Westie once every few weeks. Buy a mild shampoo to use on your Westie. Prepare the bath. Shampoo your Westie’s fur. Rinse and dry your Westie.

When you’re moving, if your team isn’t providing covering fire, provide it yourself. Before you start moving, raise your gun up and look down the sights. Then, as you’re moving, keep your head on a swivel by looking back and forth down the sights. If you see any opponents, fire repeatedly to keep them from hopping up and getting a free shot. In general, unless you absolutely know there’s no one around, you shouldn’t lower your gun. If the arena has multiple levels, taking the high ground can make it easier to track your enemy. From the second floor, you’ll have an easier time spotting the enemy as they move across the map. You’ll also be safer from the second floor since your opponent would have to look upwards to notice you. The one instance where this may not be true could be the beginning of the game. If there’s a second level, a bunch of players are likely going to be rushing upstairs as soon as the buzzer goes off. Expect a massive shootout in the first minute or two. If the guns have limited ammunition, you’ll need to conserve your ammunition and maneuver around the map to get into position for higher-percentage shots. If the guns have unlimited ammunition, you’ll be rewarded for firing as often as possible and playing a little more defensively by finding a safe spot and shooting from cover.

TL;DR in English: Shoot while you’re moving to keep the enemy off of you. Take the high ground if there’s a second floor. Change your rate of fire based on your ammunition.
